Do you want to help pastors remain steadfast in the truth in a darkening culture?

This Giving Tuesday, with your partnership, SES is going to do just that!
As of March 2022, the percentage of pastors who have considered quitting full-time ministry within the past year sits at 42 percent.

Imagine the effect on a lost, darkening world - and the church - if we lost 42% of our pastors to burn out.

Over four in five pastors who haven’t considered quitting (83%) say they believe in the value of their ministry, but pastors who haven’t thought about leaving ministry indicate “the immense stress of the job” (34%), “current political divisions” (32%) and feeling “lonely and isolated” (18%) are factors that have negatively impacted their ability to lead at their church within the past year.

Only one in three pastors is considered “healthy” in terms of well-being, only 22% say they receive regular support, and current data indicates seven in ten pastors will not finish well in ministry.

At SES, we know there is a better way.

We are committed to standing with these critical leaders and making tangible differences in their ministries and well-being through the Steadfast Leaders Peer-to-Peer Network.

By encouraging through connection, creating regional relationships, and equipping leaders for today’s challenges to faith and ministry, the Steadfast Leaders Network will have a game-changing effect on the modern day church and the next generation of leaders.
